Good and his friends. Psychology for children

M.: AST, 2017.

All parents want their children to grow up to be kind, fair and sensitive people. Of course, babies, like sponges, absorb everything they see in their family. But you still need to talk with your child about moral norms.

Yulia Borisovna Gippenreiter is a famous Russian psychologist, professor at Moscow State University, author of numerous scientific papers.

The book "Kindness and His Friends" is intended for children four to eight years old. Therefore, it is written in a simple, "unscientific" language, understandable to a small child. These are dialogues about good and evil, in which the actions of fairy-tale heroes and real people are analyzed. What is conscience and why is it needed? Why does a person feel guilty after doing wrong? Do all people need sympathy? Can you be fair? Why can't you use someone else's kindness all the time? Who are the devils of evil: greed, rudeness, envy, cowardice, laziness? How to deal with them and can they be defeated?

The book contains a lot of illustrations, there are practical tasks. Reading will be exactly joint, the child will become an active participant in the educational process. You will ask your baby important ethical questions and listen to the answers.

The book can be used not only in the family, but also as a guide to "morality lessons" in kindergartens and elementary schools.
